54. I'm Just Sweet-Talking, You are Not in My Heart

Sunday, June 15

At two o'clock in the afternoon, many guests gathered outside the Beika Church, and several long Western-style dining tables in the middle were decorated with meals and champagne towers.

The guests were talking and laughing about topics related to the wedding.

At this time, in the dressing room behind the wedding, today's heroine Matsumoto Sayuri had just changed into her wedding dress and was receiving relatives and friends who came to celebrate.

"Happy wedding, Sayuri-sensei."

"Wow~ Thank you!"

"What a beautiful wedding dress, Sayuri."

"Of course, I picked this carefully."

"Congratulations, Ms. Sayuri."

"..."

"..."

A handheld camera recorded the scenes of friends and relatives coming to celebrate.

Mouri Ran and Sonoko Suzuki, who were here acting as photographers, excitedly controlled the camera, thoughtfully wanting to leave precious video memories for their favorite teacher in Junior High School.

Until a very familiar face appeared in the camera.

"You are so beautiful today, Ms. Sayuri."

"Yoshiki is here too!"

Matsumoto Sayuri smiled, "Long time no see, you have grown into an outstanding man."

"It's been a long time indeed."

Hayashi Yoshiki showed a somewhat happy smile, and then looked at the surprised Mouri Ran and Suzuki Sonoko: "Ran, Sonoko, you too."

"Oh, you guys know each other too?" Matsumoto Sayuri looked surprised.

"Yes, Sensei, Brother Yoshiki is my mother's nephew."

Mouri Ran explained to Matsumoto Sayuri, and Suzuki Sonoko looked at Hayashi Yoshiki with great joy, "So Brother Yoshiki is also Sensei's student?"

"After all, I also studied at Teitan Junior High School."

Hayashi Yoshiki replied with a smile.

He was invited to attend the wedding today.

Matsumoto Sayuri is a music teacher at Teitan Junior High School. She is young, beautiful and cheerful, and is very popular among students.

Even today, many of her students came to her wedding spontaneously.

"When I first started working, I happened to be teaching Yoshiki's class."

Facing the delighted Suzuki Sonoko, Matsumoto Sayuri talked about this topic with a smile: "Looking at the way you look, you must not know? Back then, Yoshiki was a really bad student."

"Eh? What?"

"Now, Yoshiki looks gentle and reliable, right? He was indeed a well-mannered and good student back then, but——"

At this point, Matsumoto Sayuri smiled, then turned to look at Hayashi Yoshiki and asked, "Can I tell you what happened next?"

"Sensei, you are deliberately keeping me in suspense!" "Now that you are married, don't be so mean."

Mouri Ran and Suzuki Sonoko couldn't help but shout.

Hayashi Yoshiki was speechless.

"It doesn't matter. After all, it's not something shameful."

"What do you mean it doesn't matter? Don't you know how we teachers reacted when we heard the news?" Matsumoto Sayuri said this, and then turned around and told the whole story: "It is said that all the bad guys in the school recognized him as the leader at that time."

"Huh?"

"Leader?"

"Yes, he was a bad student who got into fights and made trouble. When I heard about it, I thought there was another boy named 'Hayashi Yoshiki' in the school."

(…Are you the protagonist from some shojo manga?)

Listening to what Sayuri Matsumoto said, Edogawa Conan next to her couldn't help but complain in his heart.

"So Conan is here too?"

It was at this time that Hayashi Yoshiki noticed Edogawa Conan's presence - no wonder this guy could run around the crime scene. He was so small that almost no one notice him, every time, he would be discovered and beaten by Mouri Kogoro only after he had collected some evidence.

"Well, hello, Brother Yoshiki."

Edogawa Conan came over and raised his face to pretend to be innocent: "I saw the news about Brother Yoshiki in the newspaper a few days ago. Did you solve the case in the library in one go?"

"That's not the case. It was mainly because of what you guys said about the overloaded elevator at that time, Conan."

Hayashi Yoshiki didn't intend to say more about this matter, but just affirmed the contributions of those naughty kids.

But Edogawa Conan was still very discouraged after listening to it - how come he had so much time to think, and was even present at the scene, but he couldn't figure out the secret of the elevator overload?

At this point, Edogawa Conan had to admit that Hayashi Yoshiki was much better than him in terms of reasoning.

But he won't give up!

"…"

Seeing this kid looking at him inexplicably and his eyes suddenly becoming determined, Hayashi Yoshiki felt that another case was about to happen nearby.

It just so happens that Gin is still worried about his declining popularity recently.

"So Brother Yoshiki used to make friends with bad boys?" Xiaolan asked Hayahi Yoshiki in disbelief.

"No, I did that just for the sake of convenience."

"Convenient?"

"Well, after all, teenagers often have strange ideas. I don't know why there are always some bad boys who want to make trouble for me, so I just bring everyone together."

He said this with a smile, which really made people dumbfounded.

Bringing everyone together?

You don't mean something like capturing Pokémon, beating them up and then making them your companions, right?

After accidentally learning about another side of Hayashi Yoshiki, Mouri Ran and Suzuki Sonoko's reactions were very interesting, and they seemed to have a new impression of him.

Hayashi Yoshiki felt that there was nothing to say.

Because he came into this world more than a year ago, what he just said are actually all memories left in his mind.

But what Hayashi Yoshiki cared about was that this was indeed his own body, and the things he did that were recorded in his memory seemed to be the actions he would do.

"Speaking of which, a few former female students asked me about you just now. How is it? If Yoshiki is single now, then I can help to introduce you to someone."

Matsumoto Sayuri even nudged Hayashi Yoshiki with her elbow in a teasing manner, regardless of the fact that she was wearing a wedding dress.

Hayashi Yoshiki did not refuse, but just smiled and said:

"I am indeed single now. Since Sayuri-Sensei is willing to introduce me to someone, I would like to ask if there are any girls prettier than Sayuri-Sensei here?"

"Ha, how is that possible? I'm the heroine today!"

"Indeed, Sayuri-Sensei is undoubtedly the most beautiful woman today... Usually when I watch a movie, I tend to pay more attention to the heroine."

"Your words are a bit dangerous, Yoshiki." Matsumoto Sayuri raised an eyebrow and joked, "Unfortunately, I already have a crush on someone, so I can only say sorry."

"It's okay, I'm just being sweet."

Hayashi Yoshiki also smiled, "I don't have you in my heart."
